Abstract: In December 2015, the Tenth WTO Ministerial Conference in Nairobi (Kenya) was held; as a result six ministerial decisions were adopted. Further negotiations and execution of the Doha Development Agenda were also discussed in Nairobi. The slowdown of multilateral negotiations that can be currently noticed leads to even more extensive development of the regional integration processes. The article describes the key results of the conference, particularly the decisions on agriculture, cotton trade and the least developed countries (LDCs), and their possible impact on the further development of international trade.
